Investment casting or lost wax casting has been around for thousands of years. In the traditional method, a model is first made from wax, then a plaster mold is created around the wax model. This plaster-wax assembly is fired in a kiln to harden the plaster and burned out the wax to create a negative mold that allows parts to be cast. 3D printing is changing the game. This same technique is now being renewed by replacing the wax model with 3D printed parts. With the introduction of lower priced, high quality 3D printers and castable resins, this technique is...

3D Printing, functional material, i3DP, resin -

Adaptive material for increasing complex 3D printing 3D printing, or additive manufacturing, has come a long way from its humble beginnings of producing simple plastic parts. Today 3D printing is used to produce increasingly complex functional components, including mechanisms, and electronics. It is now evolving from a prototyping technology into a full production technique. As the demands on 3D printers become more complicated, it is important that 3D printing materials become more adaptive and functional. The challenge is to develop materials that can be the basis for printing many different types of complex products. Inspired by nature People have been...
